3D Art Supervisor | Playable Ads

About The Team

One of Wildlife's key competitive advantages is bringing the right game to the right person at the moment, meaning that we are great at distributing games. Within Distribution, Creatives is a major competitive advantage. We create some of the industry's best-performing and most innovative ads.

The Creatives is a large and multi-skilled team responsible for optimizing our user acquisition campaigns’ performance through the creatives (aka ads) displayed on them. The delivered creatives can be 2D and 3D videos or playable experiences that will be the first point of contact for millions of players with our games and IPs. In a competitive landscape of millions of mobile games, having appealing and captivating creatives that resonate with our audience plays a significant role in every games' growth.

To find great creatives, we developed a unique process that combines creativity and tons of data analysis that brings learnings from past creatives, benchmarks, and market trends. To guarantee that we are continually generating new creatives with a major impact on our game’s growth, we produce creatives on an industrial scale.

The Playables department is responsible for producing our playable ads (or mini-games), which are the first interactive experience we will provide for a major part of our audience. We want to keep questioning and learning how this small taste of our games will leave them craving for more. This is a multiskilled team composed of engineers and artists
